Oink Oink!

This little piggy... Wait! that's a nursery rhyme. This here is a limerick.

"Ahh, Medium rare"- Dalle-E

I marched to the store for a slab of bacon.

Breakfast and lunch is what I'll be makin.

But pigs were on strike,

they said, Go take a hike!

Go wrestle a cow for the takin!

Happy Pigs!

    Hi Lamar ~ As a Vegetarian I say Good 4/U Piggy's ~ now go warn the Cows ~ My pleasure to meet you ~ May I introduce myself I'm Jay. Just a retired self described "Goof Writer." But, may I just say it's a pleasure that you just talked to me with your comments ~ as I've observed you do with so many others. Too many "AttaBoys" these days ~ Thank you for just being you. Glad you enjoyed my 'Rescue' - it's really kind of cool that this dedicated organization has placed it into their national newsletter receiving so much publicity from it - a nice feeling, Lamar - but, who knew? I get the feeling we speak the same language? May I ask you this: As I scroll through your 'Schtick' please tell me what you think I might enjoy - we all have our favorites - even 'favorite' children ~ Nah ~ Take a moment, when time permits, and look at my 'Goop'...I'm not quite sure what you might like? Maybe "Fired"... No hurry, just a thought. Fun to find a new friend ~ So embarrassed to take your ear off ~ I blame my 'Alter-Ego' check that one out - fellow Topic-Searchers may relate to that story: I toss ideas against the wall and what 'Schticks' is what my fingers write about through me. I like to be silly, Lamar! So Call a 'Writer's Cop" Jay
